Monte Carlo studies for the optimisation of the Cherenkov Telescope Array layout

A. Acharyya, I. Agudo, E. O. Angüner +467

The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) is the major next-generation observatory for ground-based very-high-energy gamma-ray astronomy. It will improve the sensitivity of current groun…

Accessing the population of high redshift Gamma Ray Bursts

G. Ghirlanda, R. Salvaterra, G. Ghisellini +19

Gamma Ray Bursts (GRBs) are a powerful probe of the high redshift Universe. We present a tool to estimate the detection rate of high-z GRBs by a generic detector with defined energ…

A deep search for the host galaxies of GRBs with no detected optical afterglow

A. Rossi, S. Klose, P. Ferrero +28

Gamma-Ray Bursts can provide information about star formation at high redshifts. Even in the absence of a optical/near-infrared/radio afterglow, the high detection rate of X-ray af…

The Large Observatory for X-ray Timing (LOFT)

M. Feroci, the LOFT Consortium

High-time-resolution X-ray observations of compact objects provide direct access to strong-field gravity, to the equation of state of ultra-dense matter and to black hole masses an…
